Sample makes for Rainbow Fusion

I would like to update the blog with makes that I have made before the blog existed. Here is the first of many.

I agreed to make some samples for Karina at Rainbow Fusions for her to take to shows that she was attending with her beautiful yarn. This little lot was made from one skein of 4ply yarn. You can’t tell from the angle of this picture but there is a sparkle to the yarn. It was so beautiful and easy to work with.

Pattern test – Iris hat – Update

UPDATE

I’ve just realised that I hadn’t updated that the Iris Hat is now finished. To be honest, it’s been finished for months!

The pictures don’t show the correct colour, it is much more purple than this.

I have had lots of comments about the colour as it is so lovely. My only criticism is that it isn’t the warmest when it is windy. Other than that, it’s a great hat and I will definitely make another.

Older post…

It looks like I am back on to hats but this time for a pattern test for Forgetmeknotpa who can be found on Instagram.

I have only just started the test any have only completed the first 4 rounds but it is looking pretty so far.

The yarn is Sirdair Giselle which is a an aran yarn in shade 0131.

More details to follow.

Pattern Test – Melbourne Shawl

I recently completed a pattern test for the published author https://www.edieeckman.com.

I used King Cole 4 Big Value ply in graphite and plum and Stylecraft Life 4 ply in black.

I really enjoyed this project as the pattern was easy to follow and gave clear instructions. It also comes with a chart for those who prefer to use this type of pattern. There was enough of a challenge as each row was different to the last but once you had memorised the pattern repeat, it was straight forward to complete. It was a nice project to do in the evening in front of the TV.

The pattern is now available on Ravelry as a paid for pattern https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/melbourne-shawl.
